-CHAPTER 14-
The NCIS crew was waiting in the doctor's lounge/locker room when the three doctors came in.
"What's going on," Dr. Delmar asked. "Why did you call us all in here?"
"We're trying to catch a killer." Tony snarked,
"But you arrested Cameron yesterday, so why are you still here?" Dr. Delmar asked.
"Well, not everything is adding up so we need some input from his colleagues..." Tony said pointedly, "To help fit the pieces together."
With a coy smile, Dr. Sharpe stated, "Then, by all means how can we help."
"Well, you can start by explaining this," Tony said as he tossed a photo on the table.
The two male doctors exchanged puzzled looks before looking at Sharpe, who demanded angrily, "How did you get that picture?"
"Searched Jenkins apartment...it's amazing what a man will say when he's been accused of murder," Tony said pointedly, "All the dark secrets he's willing to admit to..."
"So then you know the bastard cheated on me..." She said angrily.
"That wasn't quite his version..." McGee started to comment, but was interrupted by Sharpe.
"Of course it wasn't..." she ground out, "and of course you boys are going to stick together."
"Yeah, well I'm more thinking it might have been that restraining order he took out six months ago that might have put a crimp in your relationship," Tony said cheekily.
"It was a misunderstanding...we settled it and he withdrew the order...we've moved past it; even became friends." Sharpe replied.
"Had to be hard though, seeing him with the Lt.; first she steals your boyfriend, then they get engaged, then to top off all that you have to compete with her for the internship," Tony explained casually, "I mean really, just how much can one person take."
"So I kill her...what would I gain from that, it doesn't guarantee me the internship...doesn't change mine and Cameron's relationship," Monica shot back.
"But it does satisfy that need for revenge...I saw "Fatal Attraction"...the scorned woman is a dangerous beast." Tony quipped.
"You're wrong," was all she said.
"Maybe, there is the problem of the timing. We checked all your schedules for that day...seems you had the same gap as Jenkins that cancelled surgery..." McGee said
"We were both supposed to assist Dr. Nelson but the patient developed and infection, it was postponed..." Monica explained. "I came to the lounge to get some sleep."
"Yeah, hospital security clearly showed you entering the room." Tony agreed, adding, "But there is more than one door leading in and out of the sleep area."
"So you killed Shelly," Delmar said in exaggerated shock.
"No!" the woman shouted.
"So you wouldn't mind giving us a DNA and hair sample then...for comparison," Tony asked lightly.
"Not without a warrant," the woman shot back angrily.
"Thought you didn't have anything to hide...if that's the case then the samples will clear you of any involvement in all of this," Tony replied casually.
"Or provide your lab with samples to guarantee a conviction," She said.
"Only if you're guilty...are you guilty?" Tony asked, quirking an expectant eye at the woman.
...NCIS...
a/n: couple more chapters and it will be done, but this is the last chapter that has been completed so it may be a few days before I get an ending written...
